Television and Cinema Verities


“Dragon’s Domain” had just been done, and it used the technique of the voice-over.

Also, it lends viewers the notion that what they are seeing is history, in the past. For an origin myth, looking back across ten thousand, three thousand or even three hundred years of history that seemed very appropriate to me.”
